The People Suffer and Foot tho Bills,

The People Suffer and Foot tho Bills.
The New York stock exchange agreed, as
was expected, last week to list silver GER
tihcates. This enables Messrs. Manning
and Jordan, with the Democratic bank, the
necessity and objects OF which the Ma
TIoNAL REPUBLICAN explained on May 3,
to commence the manipulation OF silver as
commodity, so that It can be driven out
Of circulation as money, In the interest OF
monometallsts, spectators, and Democratic
wirepullers.
One of the leading journals OF the Wall
street spectators and the monometalists
said yesterday:
Meanwhile, the fact that sl3o,50o0OO silver
certificates are out, and the stock exchsnge has
decided to open speculative market for silver
here, leads prudent capitalists to reflect. This
new form Of speculation will lock up consid
cradle capital-more than the s60,O0O,0Oo now
employed in carrying surplus wheat-if the
New York market attempts, as some predict
to control the worlds price of silver
This fully confirms what the NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN, said on last Friday, wher
It exposed this plan for "hawking silver,
putting It on par with wheat, corn, ant
other commodities, and driving 1t out o
circulation as money. There is now in cir
culation not less than $2OO, 900 OF stand
ard silver dollars ana silver certificates
which represent these dollars in the vault
of the treasury.
Wall street will manipulate the scheme
Spectators Of Wall street will prof
largely-the holders of gold will prof
largely-England with It's gold standar
will profit largely-and the people will hav
to suffer and foot the bills.

For two years Democratic House with fifty
majority, with sole power on the subject, has
been trying to find way to reduce the sur
plus, but utterly failed to agree. And now Il
new Democratic House, 1t is said, Is TO be
called upon in extra session TO solve the riddle
The business community is beginning to feel
the sense of danger, and the cry is coming
"Good Lord deliver us.'-Sendtor Sherman.
For six years the Republican party has had
control of the Senate, with Senator Sherman
to help 1t, and has failed to pass bill to reduce
the surplus.-S, Louis Republtcan.
Since the 2lst day Of June, ninety mine
years ago, the House of Representative
has had the sole power to originate blll'
raising revenue, and this includes thu
lowering Of it also, so that the Republican
Senate had no power to reduce the revenue
until bill for that purpose came to 1t from
the Democratic House.

The house OF commons Of the British
parliament has decided that on next Friday
night, the 18th instant, at 10 O'Clock, no
matter what condition 1t occupies, the coer-
cicn bill shall be taken from the committee
and passed.
This is to he done under the new rule,
adopted for this express purpose by the
present house OF commons, which enables
q bare majority to carry "closure" at any
stage of the debate upon measure before
the body.
Such proceeding has not yet been seen
in any parliamentary body as will occur on
he occasion when bill affecting the liberty,
property, and lives Of the entire people of
Ireland is taken up and passed in this
manner.
The British empire is not governed by
written constitution, but by precedents
long established, which have become rules uf
action for the governance Of the country,
and while 1t is nominally governed by q
single sovereign, the supreme power 10 Great
Britain is really vested in parliament, with
much the largest part of the power in the
house Of commons.
IL would be -ery ~oeefs fa- any eo-ereigu
in Europe, no matter how despotic hie
powers orincllnations, to at tempt to do for
any part OF his dominions what the British
house of commons proposes to do next
Friday.
Epglshmen claim to live in n free couu-
try and boast OF the rights which the peo-
pile of that country have OF self-govern-
ment, rights which inure to the benefit OF
every one to such an extent that the slave
who puts his foot upon English ground in
stantly becomes freeman.
Yet these same Eugishmen propose, be-
fore this week shall pass away, to pract-
cally make slaves Of some millions Of their
fellow countrymen, whose race has fur
nished them some of their greatest states
mep, soldiers, lawyers, and writers.
No greater blow has been struck against
free government since Charles l entered the
house of commons with an armed forcs to
arrest Pym, Hollis, Hampden, Hoselrig, aud
STROBE.
That act cost Charles his crown aud his
head, and Lord Salisbury should not forget
that history is in the habit Of repeating
itself.
The tory cabinet made one mistake in
selecting the 18th for the day when this
audacious outrage upon freedom was to be
committed. On Tuesday, the 2lst Of June,
Queen Victoria will celebrate the fiftieth
recurrence OF the year she ascended the
throne.
Tuesday should have been the day Sc
lected to order "closuren on the Irish
crimes BILL 1t would have been an oppor-
tunity rarely offered a constitutional SOW
ereign, to have the opportunity on this
'jubilee day" to say to the parliament
which was depressing portion OF her peo'
pie, who have suffered untold misery dur
ing her long reign: 81 am the sovereign;
you shall not violate the law ana oppress
the Irish. Parliament is dissolved. l ap-
peal to the people Of England, Scotland,
and Wales to free the people Of Ireland
from your tyranny"
This would be the fitting way to cele-
brate the queens jubilee.

A Virginia Democratic paper contains the
following:
We take II, the Democratic convention Is to
be called to adopt plan of campaign for the
fall elections-such plan as is naost likely to
secure success. Therefore, 1t is more impor-
tant TO the party to adopt plan of debt set
tlement that will be acceptable 70 the voters
than one that woHld stand the test of the
courts. This is politics. And as long as the
debt question remains party question 1t is
necessary TO deal with IL in q manner that will
receive the Endorsement of the voters--not
that OF the Supreme Court. Therefore, our
esteemed contemporaries reason for thinking
that the Riddleberger bill will receive no con-
sideTation by the convention, on account Of he
adrerse decisions Of The Supume Court, is not,
we think, well founded. Victory Is much more
important 10 he leaders Of The party than settle.
mCnt of he debt.
Party success is to be placed above hon
esty or any other consideration II the ad-
vice Of this paper should be followed by
the Democrats OF Virginia, and the fact
that such a suggestion has been made,
coupled with the record OF the party on
this subject, should lead to close scrutiny
Of any plan proposed by the Democrats.
No Democrat in Virginia denies that the
state owes some amount OF money, but here
is one claiming to voice the opinion Of
Virginia Democrats and to instruct them
IN their duties who places party victory
above an honest settlement Of the debt.
There is one thing in the papers favor
Il says that victory is more important to
The leaders of the party" That may be
true, for with defeat they would be de-
pIiyed OF Office aud the means of living on
The state. An honest and fair settlement
OF the state debt Is more important TO the

MThe Shot Gun Preferable, :,

But what shall we do? We have tried the
bayonet Of the Republicans. We have tried
the shot gun of the Democrats. Both are
wrong; but between the two, the shot gun IS
preferable, because 1t at least gives peace by
maintaining inevitable normal conditions.
Courier journal.
This reminds us Of the 100000 men who
were offered, from the same source, to force
the Inauguration as President of Demo
crst who was not elected. The shot gun
Of the Democrats is passing out OF politics.
All the people Of the south will divide on
economic questions, and the shot gun in
politics will no longer be preferable.

For Americans Visiting the West In
dian Isles.
The Secretary Of State ia informed by the
minister of Spain in Washington that for
eiguers visiting Cuba, who remain beyond
one month, must provide themselves with
passports. Spanish consuls in the United
States are now instructed to afiix wise to
United States passports at the cost of 81.
A notice has also been received from st..
Thomas, to the effect that hereafter Span
ish subjects from that island visiting Cuba
and Porto Rico must be provided with
passports from the Spanish consulate.
Subjects Of other nations must secure pass
ports from their respective consuls Or from
the Danish authorities, according to their
nationality, duly vised at the Spanish con-
sulate at st. Thomas. Heretofore Ameri-
cans visiting st. Thomas were not required
TO take out passport when they proceeded
to Cuba or Porto Rico, but 1t is now highly
important that they do so. -

The exports for the last two weeks have
fallen nearly twelve per cent. below the
exports for the same time last year, while
the imports for the same period have ex-
ceeded those CT the last year by nearly
seventeen per cent. These figures mean au-
other heavy balance against the country
for the month Of June, which will have tc
be met by the shipment Of gold. The can,

Of wings overhead, the whirling Of larger
birds in the cover, and frequent rustling in
the underground, as of the passage of some
stealthy animal, began equally 10 attract her
attention. 1t was SO different from the ha-
bitual silence of these sedate solitudes. Kate
had no vague fear Of wild beasts; she had
been long enough a mountaineer TO under
stand the general immunity enjoyed by the
unmolesting wayfarer, and kept her way I'M
disinayed. She was descending on abrupt
trail when she was stopped by sudden crash
in tho bushes. 1t seemed TO come from the
opposite incline, directly in line with her,
and apparently on the very trail that she
was pursuing. The crash was then repeated
again and again lower down, es Of descend
ing body Expecting the apparition of some
fallen tree, or detached bowlder bursting
through the thicket, in its way to the bottom
of the gulch, she waited. The foliage was
suddenly brushed aside, and large grizzly
bear half rolled, half waddled, into the trail
on the opposite side of the hill A few mo-
ments more would have brought them face
to face at the foot of the gulch; when she
stopped there were not fifty yards between
them.
She did not scream; she did not faint; she
was not even frightened. There did not seem
to be anything terrifying in this huge, stupid
beast, who, arrested by the rustic of stone
displaced by her descending feet, rose slowly
on his launches and gazed at her with small.
wondering eyes. Nor did it seem strange 30
her, seeing that he was in her way, to pick IN
a stone, throw it in his direction and say sim

he had gone that she was taken with slight
nervousness and giddiness, and retraeed her
steps somewhat hurriedly, shying little at
every rustic in the thicket. By the time she
had reached the great gateway she was
doubtful whether to be pleased or frightened
at the incident, but she concluded to keep it
to herself.
1t was still intensely cold. The light Of the
midday sun had decreased still more, and on
reaching the plateau again she saw that
dark cloud, not unlike the precursor OF a
thunder storm, was brooding over the snowy
peaks beyond. In spite Of the cold this sin
gular suggestion Of summer phenomena was
still borne out by the distant smiling valley,
and even in the soft grasses at her feet. 1t

the climate, and with a half serious, half
playful protest. on her lips she hurried for
